Although Ronan needs to think about joining the Avengers, he doesn't need to think about it again.

Narcissistic people?

With so many narcissistic people in the world, Tony Stark has to be at the top of the list.

No one is more narcissistic than he is.

"Steve, I have to tell you truthfully, your request, in fact, it is difficult for me to win."

"Although I know that your organization has good intentions."

"And I want to protect the planet."

"But, in fact, we also have our responsibilities."

Although the organization will soon be dismantled, and when they get back together, a large number of people have already changed.

It can be said that the world is impermanent.

"Your responsibility?"

"I've known you for so long, I really don't know what you do."

Tony Stark on the side also had questions.

In total, he and Ronan have known each other for several months.

He didn't know who Ronan really was.

"In a way, our purpose is the same, to protect the planet."

"But the difference is that we are not responsible for the attack of the reality dimension on the earth, and we will not intervene in the internal struggle of the earth."

"For thousands of years, all our mages have done this."

For these things, Ronan felt that there was no need to hide them.

Anyway, they don't understand it, and they can't get much effective information.

Although in some ways, Kama Taj will appear in front of the world sooner or later, but after all, it is not now.

"The reality dimension?"

"What do you mean?"

Compared to Steve Rogers' blank face, Tony Stark could barely understand what he meant.

He knows what the word "dimension" represents.

"The so-called reality dimension refers to the battles you have experienced before."

"For example, the invasion of the Chiritas on the earth, for example, the several world wars on the earth."

"Also, including that dark elf invasion of Earth, we shouldn't have been responsible for it."

"It's just my teacher who made some deals with Odin, so we're going to help Sol through the crisis."

Ronan gave them a few simple examples.

Although these things are more or less the shadow of Kama Taj.

But overall, they're not really responsible for these things.

"The Battle of New York?"

"Then why, you're there?"

Steve Rogers also thought of the recent Battle of New York.

It was precisely because Ronan suddenly appeared on the battlefield that it led to S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra investigating Ronan.

It can be said that everything has a cause and effect.

"Maybe my teacher thinks you might not be able to handle it, right?"

"After all, the nuclear bombs all came out in the end, and if I had been there at the time, maybe Tony wouldn't have to carry the nuclear bomb on his back and go out of the earth."

"And it won't happen."

However, before Ronan could finish speaking, his words were interrupted by Tony Stark.

"Okay, we know what the reality dimension is."

"Since you are not responsible for this, what is the earth that you are responsible for protecting?"

Tony Stark didn't want outsiders to know about these things that he suffered from anxiety.

How to put it, it's no longer a question of face, it's obvious good face and vanity.

Of course, that's the real Tony Stark.

"In the non-reality dimension, all enemies who want to invade the earth are within our responsibility."

"Including the Dormammu you dreamed about before, the dark dimension where he is located has coveted the earth for hundreds of thousands of years."

"Of course, there is also the more popular in the United States, where bad guys go to hell and good guys go to heaven."

"I don't know if heaven exists, but I do know that hell does."

Again, Ronan gave two easy-to-understand examples.

Of course, the former is better understood by Tony Stark, and the latter is understood by Steve Rodgers.

That's the art of Ronan speaking.

He didn't want to go through the hassle of explaining it many times.

"Hell

"When I hear this word again, I still feel a little chill in my heart."

"There is no heaven, only hell, and when a good man dies, do he have to go to hell?"

Tony Stark sighed, this was the second time he'd heard about Hell.

If Ronan hadn't told him, maybe he wouldn't have been sure of it.

Even, during the Great War in New York at that time, when Tony Stark rushed into the portal with a nuclear bomb, he still thought about one thing.

He has saved so many people, he should be able to go to heaven after death, right?

But now, the dream woke up.

"Is there really a hell in the world?"

Steve Rogers seemed to have thought of something.

In his opinion, a person like him with blood on his hands will definitely go to hell after death, right?

"Yes, those demons in myths and stories also exist."

"Take Mephisto, Lord of Hell."

"Although I haven't seen it, I've seen a lot of other demons."

Ronan smiled, and that time was the Time Authority's timeline out of order, causing the demons of hell to invade Earth.

At that time, Ronan saw various varieties of demons.

"So, a lot of weird events are actually what you call attacks from non-realistic dimensions."

"For example, the ghosts in the horror stories, and some legends."

"Actually, it's all real?"

Tony Stark thought of these topics.

When he didn't know Ronan before, he also researched a lot of information about the occult.

In many books, legends and supernatural stories are linked to the occult.

Including the story that Tony Stark saw earlier

Thinking of this, Tony Stark suddenly stood up from the couch.

His action made Steve Rogers instantly put on alert.

Of course, a second later, Steve Rogers relaxed.

"Tony, what are you doing here?"

Steve Rogers frowned.

He, the "older generation" who is more inclined to be calm, is less likely to look down on such startled movements.

In this way, it will give people a very impetuous feeling.

"I've read in some books about the Middle Ages, when witches were judged."

"There was once a man in a yellow robe who saved several young women who were about to be burned at the stake."

"Among them was a literate woman who recorded her story and passed it on to future generations."

"At the time, it was thought to be a legend, or a forgery."

Tony Stark looked at Ronan and began to mumble to himself.

And Steve Rogers, on the side, couldn't understand what he was saying at all.

"Tony, what do you mean by that?"

Steve Rogers frowned.

"You don't know, when I first met him, he was wearing a yellow robe!"

"That yellow robe is exactly as described in that book!"

Tony Stark finally said the reason for his surprise.

He had even forgotten about it before.

However, when Ronan mentioned it today, he suddenly remembered.

"It can't be!"

"How can a man live that long!"

Steve Rogers subconsciously denied this answer.

But soon, both of them looked at Ronan sitting on the couch at the same time.

Ronan just looked at them with a smile and didn't rush to answer the question.

"That yellow-robed man, it can't be you, right?"

"Could it be that you have lived for three or four hundred years?"

Steve Rogers swallowed.

No one really lives that long, right?

"Guess what?"

"Maybe in front of you, under the skin of this young man, lives the soul of an old monster."

"Maybe?"

Ronan raised an eyebrow.

And his words immediately made Steve Rogers and Tony Stark stand on end.

Did he admit it?

Seeing the two of them look like this, Ronan finally couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"I said you guys are too naïve, how could anyone live that long."

"Those are just legends."

"While that person does exist, it was one of us mages hundreds of years ago."

"There is no such thing as a person who lives for hundreds of years."

Ronan burst out laughing.

It's just that Steve Rogers and Tony Stark didn't mean to laugh.

They always felt that Ronan was lying to them.

In fact, Ronan didn't tell the truth, because the yellow-robed man was none other than his teacher, Gu Yi.

Although Gu Yi didn't tell him these things, according to the time, there is no doubt that that person is Gu Yi.

After all, the Ancient One had gathered the wool of the Dark Dimension and had made Dormammu's incompetence rage for so many years.

"Alright, you can rest assured."

"I'm not going to lie to you about that."

"If we mages had that kind of longevity, I'm afraid they would have split into different forces and roles like humans long ago."

"You can't be ignorant of mages, either."

Ronan casually made an excuse to soothe their hearts.

Hearing this, the two superheroes, who were extremely nervous, slowly relaxed.

yes, who can live that long?

Even Steve Rogers himself, if he had followed the normal trajectory, would have lived to be close to a hundred years old by now.

It is only a very rare case that he can see the new century and be alive all the time.

Normal humans can barely replicate anymore.

"Well, it seems that we are indeed overly concerned."

Tony Stark sat down on the couch and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

If Ronan really told him that he was the old monster who had lived for hundreds of years, I'm afraid his three views would collapse!

Although they have seen aliens like Thor who can live for 5,000 years, they really have never seen earthlings who can live for hundreds of years!

Thor is an alien, and they have a long lifespan, and they are still in the realm of their understanding.

But as a human being, if Ronan can live for a few hundred years, it will be too much. It's not human anymore.

"But what Tony said can also be used as evidence."

"I'll give you an example, the Great Fire of London in 1666, which was actually my old . My old-timers, the evidence against Dormammu. ”

"It was also the first time that Dormammu had an idea about the Earth."

Ronan almost bit his tongue himself.

After all, this thing was done by his teacher Gu Yi, and in order to change his words, he can only be said to be an old-timer.

"Well, don't give any more examples."

"I'm really worried that you're going to suddenly say, Einstein, these people are also your mages."

Tony Stark waved his hand again and again, motioning for Ronan to stop talking about it.

If Ronan told him that all these technologies and world-changing things of the human race now came from their mages.

Then he's really going to collapse.

"That's impossible, Einstein, they have nothing to do with us."

"Of course, I don't know if they're aliens like Thor."

"After all, some of their inventions are epoch-making."

Ronan shrugged, he didn't have any evidence to prove it anyway.

Tony Stark, on the other hand, looked pained, and he didn't want to continue communicating with Ronan.

He was afraid that his three views would burst.

"Well, now we probably understand what you and your companions do."

"Let's get back to business."

"I heard Tony say that you're looking for Zola, can I ask why?"

Steve Rogers also changed the subject.

Although he didn't understand science, he knew that there was no point in talking like this.

"Why I can tell you, but before that, I want to ask you a question."

"I heard from Tony that you once caught a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent before S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra were destroyed."

"Hitwell, huh?"

Ronan narrowed his eyes.

He still remembered that at that time, Hitwell had already been killed by himself.

If the plot develops, it is impossible for Steve Rogers to catch Hitwell and hear those news about Zora in his mouth.

But now, Zola is still "wiped out".

So, Ronan wondered what was going on in between.

"It's Hitwell, the one you killed."

"And I want to know, did you really kill him then?"

Steve Rogers' face also became serious.

Hearing this, Tony Stark, who was still in some pain on the side, also cheered up.

I'm afraid there's something in this that he doesn't know.

"If the physical sense of the pulse stops, and the heart is shattered, it is death."

"That's exactly what I did."

Ronan leaned back in his chair and took a sip of his coffee.

It was in this way that he solved Hitville.

Hearing this, Steve Rogers couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"Then the one I met is also a living Hitwell."

"Not only did he not die, but he was even stronger than before."

"If it weren't for the scar on his chest, I really don't think he was ever injured."

Steve Rogers exhaled softly, and his words made a new concept appear in Tony Stark's brain.

The dead are raised!

"You mean, S.H.I.E.L.D. has mastered."

"No, it should be said that Hydra and S.H.I.E.L.D. have mastered a technology that can bring the dead back to life?"

Tony Stark can't remember how many times he was surprised today.

Steve Rogers nodded, he had just dared to confirm this matter.

Ronan was not surprised at all.

On the one hand, he had known that there was this technology for a long time, and on the other hand, Phil Coulson had been dangling in front of him for a long time.

Ronan was more interested in other things.

"I'm more curious when you caught Hitwell and forced him to tell him about Zola."

"Did he give a few examples of threats to Hydra?"

"Who are those examples?"

Ronan asked his own question.

Because of his existence, there is no Doctor Strange in this world.

He dared to be sure of that.

So, will Zola change because of this?

"There are threatening examples."

"I still remember, he said, there is me, there is a moderator, what a deputy minister, and a student."

"And of course Bruce, Bruce Banner."

"And the last one, the Supreme Venerable I haven't heard of?"

Steve Rogers recalls the image.

It seems that the super soldier serum has brought him not only physical strengthening, but at least memory.

"The Supreme Venerable?"

Ronan sighed.

In fact, the Supreme Venerable is what Ronan often calls the Supreme Master, but the title is different.

The difference is that the Supreme Mage is a position, and anyone who rules Kama Taj will be given this name.

And the Supreme Venerable, in a sense, is a little different.

But the specific differences, Ronan can't say.

It seems that only those who are particularly powerful among the Supreme Mages can be called Supreme Venerables.

Of course, this is also Ronan's own guess, and the ancient one never said it to him.

And the Ancient One is also known as the Supreme Venerable.

"Do you know this Supreme Venerable?"

Steve Rogers asked.

Because he saw Ronan's thoughtful expression.

Ronan nodded and said, "I know, but I'm sorry I can't tell you who she is." ”

"But what I can say is that she's not our enemy."

In fact, Ronan still revealed a little here, after all, his statement and hers are different.

Steve Rogers nodded as well, and didn't go any further.

"Isn't there me here?"

"Am I not a little threatened?"

Tony Stark on the side was a little dissatisfied at this time.

Why Steve Rogers, and Bruce Banner, and even a host.

But there is no name for him Tony Stark.

Bruce Banner may not be able to beat him, but for the other few people, Tony Stark feels that he is absolutely fine!

"When you're not wearing a steel suit, you're a little weak chicken."

"So he's right to think you're not a threat."

Ronan glanced at Tony Stark, leaving the steel suit, Tony Stark was a middle-aged man who knew how to fight at best.

And it's the kind that was once hollowed out by the color of wine.

Tony Stark immediately glared at Ronan.

You have to set up a folder and put the Anti-Mage armor on the agenda!

"The reason why I came to Zola is also very simple, that is, he has affected the safety of the planet under certain circumstances."

"That's the kind of security I say."

"So, I have to destroy it forever."

If Ronan didn't have that much hostility towards it before, but this time he returned from the 616 universe, and his hostility towards Zola has increased infinitely.

What he didn't expect was that Zora would be able to use some methods to communicate with people in parallel universes.

Even if Pooh may have left it a beacon or something like that.

However, this is also something that Ronan cannot tolerate.

"But Zola was already destroyed by me at the time, will those dangers still exist?"

Steve Rogers felt like he had destroyed Zola.

Ronan shook his head.

"You can ask Tony if there's a backup of that level of artificial intelligence."

Ronan looked at Tony Stark.

"Normally, I've created a lot of artificial intelligences like Jarvis."

"But Jarvis is by far the one I'm most happy with."

"Of course, the Zora and Jarvis you mentioned are not the same concept."

"A person who could upload his consciousness to the online world a few decades ago."

"I think it's normal for him to have backups."

"After all, after so many years of scientific development, there will always be new methods."

"And Hydra, I'm afraid I don't want Zola to be destroyed so easily."

Tony Stark also thought of his own Jarvis.

Compared to Zola, there is no doubt that Jarvis is still far behind today.

Although they are both called artificial intelligence, one is created by humans, and the other has a human mind.

"Okay, but I don't know that much about Zola."

"Most of it is some information about Hydra."

"Natasha knows these ideas better than I do, and I'll ask him to pass them on to Tony, or one of your email addresses?"

Steve Rogers didn't ask any more.

He first expressed his sincerity.

"You give it to Tony, it's not safe to have a mailbox or something."

Ronan thought about it and didn't choose to take it himself.

Give Tony Stark absolute security.

Tony Stark nodded, he was also curious about the information.

So he is willing to act as this free transit station.

"Then Steve, what are you looking for me through Tony?"

"You can't really want to invite me to join the Avengers, right?"

Ronan also began to inquire about Steve Rogers' purpose.

After all, what they talked about before didn't look like his real purpose in any way.

"Actually, the invitation to join the Avengers was just a whim."

"I actually have a question for you."

"I came across such a material when I was looking through some of the materials on Hydra."

With that, Steve Rogers placed a report on the table.

The content of the report is also very simple, that is, when Hydra was investigating the whereabouts of the Cosmic Cube and Loki, he met Ronan by chance.

No, it should be called Mr. Fantastic.

In this report, the description of the nomads is profiled.

And those who appeared with Loki in the mouths of the nomads, they couldn't see their faces clearly.

But height, clothing, and posture, they inquired in detail.

In the end, I came to a conclusion that was very similar to Mr. Fantastic.

Of course, in this report, only the people who appeared in the Great War of New York at that time were compared.

Among them, the only one who is most in line is Mr. Fantastic.

"What I want to ask is"

"You really took it. Cosmic Rubik's Cube? ”

It's over, there are three friends around me today, and one of them had dinner together two days ago.

I'm sitting in front of my computer right now, waiting to see if I have any symptoms.

It's only been a day, and there are no symptoms for the time being, so let's see tomorrow!
